Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of automotive interior technology, specifically to automotive interior verification models. Background Technology
[0002] In the early stages of automotive R&D, many automotive interior verification models are involved. Among them, the Fakom interior verification model is used for the review and acceptance of automotive interior styling and color schemes. Due to cost considerations, multiple color sample schemes need to be displayed on a single Fakom interior verification model. This requires replacing color samples on the model. Sample assembly methods typically involve locating pins, screw locking, or magnetic attachment. However, this assembly method is very time-consuming and, due to the structural limitations of the automotive door panel interior verification model, the replacement is not ergonomically sound. Utility Model Content
[0003] To at least partially solve the above problems, embodiments of this application provide an automotive interior verification model. This model is used for the review and acceptance of automotive interior styling and color. The automotive interior verification model includes: a mounting base, a styling sample, and a color sample. The styling sample is detachably mounted on the mounting base; the color sample is detachably mounted on the mounting base. The color sample is connected to the mounting base via a rebound-type snap-locking mechanism, and a gap exists between the color sample and the mounting base. The rebound-type snap-locking mechanism is configured such that: pressing the color sample reduces the gap, locking the color sample to the mounting base; pressing the color sample again reduces the gap, unlocking the color sample from the mounting base.
[0004] In some embodiments, the rebound-type snap-locking mechanism includes a locking part and a snap-fit part that cooperate with each other; when the snap-fit part presses the locking part, the locking part locks the snap-fit part; when the snap-fit part presses the locking part again, the locking part unlocks the snap-fit part; the locking part is disposed on the mounting base and the snap-fit part is disposed on the color sample, or the locking part is disposed on the color sample and the snap-fit part is disposed on the mounting base.
[0005] In some embodiments, the locking part is disposed on the mounting base, and the snap-fit part is disposed on the color sample; the mounting base has a mounting groove that extends from the edge of the mounting base to the middle of the mounting base, and the locking part is installed in the mounting groove.
[0006] In some embodiments, there are two locking parts, and two mounting slots are provided on the mounting base, with the two locking parts respectively installed in the two mounting slots; there are two snap-fit parts, with the two snap-fit parts respectively installed at the positions corresponding to the locking parts on the color sample.
[0007] In some embodiments, the mounting base is provided with a guide protrusion, and the color sample is provided with a guide groove corresponding to the guide protrusion. The guide protrusion and the guide groove cooperate so that the color sample can slide along the guide protrusion.
[0008] In some embodiments, the rebound-type snap-locking mechanism is a beetle-type rebounder.
[0009] In some embodiments, when the color sample is mounted on the mounting base, the outer surface of the color sample is flush with the outer surface of the mounting base.
[0010] In some embodiments, the model is connected to the mounting base via a rebound snap-locking mechanism.
[0011] In some embodiments, the model is connected to the mounting base by a locating pin, screw, or magnet.
[0012] In some embodiments, color samples are manufactured using leather overlay, translucent film application, or pattern engraving processes.
[0013] The automotive interior verification model provided in the embodiments of this application uses a rebound-type buckle locking mechanism to remove the color sample from the mounting base. By pressing the color sample, it can be installed or removed, which is convenient and avoids the problem that the color sample is difficult to remove due to the lack of a force point when it is flush with the outer surface of the mounting base. It realizes the rapid replacement of color samples, meets the quick replacement requirements of the display, and the operation is ergonomic. Attached Figure Description

[0024] like Figures 1-4 As shown, an embodiment of this application provides an automotive interior verification model, which is used for the review and acceptance of automotive interior styling and color. The automotive interior verification model includes: a mounting base 1, a styling sample 3, and a color sample 2. The styling sample 3 is used for reviewing the styling of the sample; typically, only one styling scheme is available, with no need for rapid replacement. The color sample 2 is used for reviewing the color of the sample. The color sample 2 can be manufactured through leather covering, translucent film application, or pattern engraving processes, and usually requires multiple schemes for review, necessitating rapid replacement. When the color sample 2 is installed on the mounting base 1, its outer surface is flush with the outer surface of the mounting base 1 for a more aesthetically pleasing visual effect. However, in this case, if the color sample 2 is secured with screws, disassembly and assembly are very time-consuming; if secured with magnets, due to the structure of the left side of the door panel, there is no space to place one's hand, making manual disassembly difficult.
[0025] A styling sample 3 is detachably mounted on a mounting base 1; a color sample 2 is detachably mounted on the mounting base 1, wherein the color sample 2 is connected to the mounting base 1 via a rebound-type snap-locking mechanism 4, and a gap exists between the color sample 2 and the mounting base 1; the rebound-type snap-locking mechanism 4 is configured such that: pressing the color sample 2 to reduce the gap locks the color sample 2 to the mounting base 1, and pressing the color sample 2 again to reduce the gap unlocks the color sample 2 from the mounting base 1. Exemplarily, the rebound-type snap-locking mechanism 4 can be a beetle-shaped rebound mechanism. In some embodiments, the styling sample 3 can be connected to the mounting base 1 via the rebound-type snap-locking mechanism 4, thereby making the installation and removal of the styling sample 3 more convenient. Of course, the styling sample 3 can also be connected to the mounting base 1 via a locating pin, screw, or magnet; this application does not limit this.
[0026] The automotive interior verification model provided in the embodiments of this application uses a rebound-type buckle locking mechanism 4 to remove the color sample 2 from the mounting base 1. By pressing the color sample 2, it can be installed or removed. The operation is convenient and avoids the problem that the color sample 2 is difficult to remove due to the lack of a force point when it is flush with the outer surface of the mounting base 1. It realizes the quick replacement of the color sample 2, meets the quick replacement requirements for display, and the operation is ergonomic.
[0027] In some embodiments, the rebound-type snap-locking mechanism 4 includes a locking part 41 and a latching part 42 that cooperate with each other; when the latching part 42 presses the locking part 41, the locking part 41 locks the latching part 42; when the latching part 42 presses the locking part 41 again, the locking part 41 unlocks the latching part 42; the locking part 41 is disposed on the mounting base 1 and the latching part 42 is disposed on the color sample 2, or the locking part 41 is disposed on the color sample 2 and the latching part 42 is disposed on the mounting base 1.
[0028] In some embodiments, the locking part 41 is disposed on the mounting base 1, and the snap-fit part 42 is disposed on the color sample 2; the mounting base 1 has a mounting groove 11 extending from the edge of the mounting base 1 to the middle of the mounting base 1, and the locking part 41 is installed in the mounting groove 11. In this embodiment, by providing the mounting groove 11, the locking part 41 can be easily assembled onto the mounting base 1.
[0029] In some embodiments, there are two locking parts 41, and two mounting slots 11 are provided on the mounting base 1, with the two locking parts 41 respectively installed in the two mounting slots 11; there are two snap-fit parts 42, which are respectively installed on the color sample 2 at the positions corresponding to the locking parts 41. In this embodiment, this structure allows the color sample 2 to be installed more stably and reliably on the mounting base 1.
[0030] In some embodiments, the mounting base 1 is provided with a guide protrusion 12, and the color sample 2 is provided with a guide groove 21 corresponding to the guide protrusion 12. The guide protrusion 12 and the guide groove 21 cooperate to allow the color sample 2 to slide along the guide protrusion 12. In this embodiment, the cooperation between the guide protrusion 12 and the guide groove 21 can achieve the positioning and guiding function of the color sample 2, which facilitates the installation and removal of the color sample 2.
[0031] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 Two spring-loaded locking mechanisms 4 are installed on the automotive interior verification model. This allows for quick replacement of the color sample 2 through the two states of the spring-loaded locking mechanism 4. Specifically, by aligning the locking structure and pressing the color sample 2 to lock it onto the mounting base 1, the spring-loaded locking mechanism is engaged. Pressing the color sample 2 again unlocks it, causing it to spring open and separate from the mounting base 1. This method allows for the demonstration of different color sample 2 designs, simplifying operation and saving time.
[0032] Based on the various embodiments of this application described above, in the absence of explicit denial or conflict, the technical features of one embodiment may be advantageously combined with one or more other embodiments.
